Barbara was last seen on January 30, 1985 in Zanesville, Ohio. She got home from work around 4:30 and was only home about 15-20 minutes, preparing to make dinner for her three children and herself, when she was contacted and told she had an appointment with a lawyer about her recent divorce and that she needed to go there immediately. She left in her car and never returned. She has not been seen since. Her car was found the next day across the street from where she was employed, and the attorney said there was never an appointment made for that day and that she was not at his office. Her case remains unsolved.
